Coffee is the speed drink of Stardew Valley. Loading five Coffee Beans into a Keg brews a cup in just two hours, the shortest wait of any Keg product. Drinking it gives a short burst of Speed, and the boost carries over to the horse. Coffee is also the base of the Triple Shot Espresso, a longer lasting form of the same buff. Free cups turn up in many places, from the Night Market to a machine that pours one every morning. Harvey loves it, and even Sebastian likes a cup.
The in-game description reads: It smells delicious. This is sure to give you a boost.
Making
A Keg takes Coffee Beans only in a stack of five, and all five must share the same quality. The Keg refuses mixed beans.
Coffee Beans are a crop that keeps producing after its first harvest. A field of them supplies a steady flow of beans for the Kegs.
Brewing is not the only way to get a cup. Gus sells Coffee at the Stardrop Saloon. At the Night Market, the Desert Trader hands out one free cup each night. The Coffee Maker, a reward from the special order for George, pours a free cup every morning. While the Hot Java Ring is worn, slain monsters sometimes drop Coffee. Mystery Boxes can hold three cups, and George and Harvey both sell Coffee at the Desert Festival. On the Beach Farm, supply crates may wash up with a cup or two before the first Farmhouse upgrade.
These are the ingredients one batch needs.

Prices
Coffee counts as a plain drink rather than an Artisan Good. Its price stays the same whichever Farming profession is chosen. It also sells only through the Shipping Bin, because Pierre's General Store refuses it.
Even so, Coffee is the fastest earner a Keg can run. Five normal beans gain about 75g as a cup, and the Keg finishes in two hours. Refilled all day long, one Keg can earn close to 1,000g a day this way. That figure needs constant attention, though, and it falls as bean quality rises. Five iridium beans already sell for as much as a cup of Coffee, so they gain nothing in the Keg.
Uses
Drinking Coffee raises Speed by one for well over a minute. As a drink buff, it stacks with any food buff, including food that adds Speed. A new drink replaces it, though, so Coffee, Green Tea, Ginger Ale and Triple Shot Espresso never stack with one another.
Cooking three cups of Coffee together makes a Triple Shot Espresso. The recipe is sold at the Stardrop Saloon, and the espresso keeps the Speed boost going for about three times as long.
At the Sewing Machine, Coffee in the spool makes the Pour-Over Shirt. Coffee also works as an orange dye in the pots at 2 Willow Lane.
